"...Days after they closed their investigation into Hillary Clinton’s use of a private email server, agents began scrutinizing the campaign of her Republican rival....."

One more barrel of horse pucky from the New York Lies. They never investigated Killary's e-mail crimes; it was a white wash with the exoneration written a couple months prior.

The NYT once more shows why they should never be considered an honest news source.

James Comey Signed FISA Applications Utilizing Same Dossier He Publically Called ‘Salacious…
Breitbart | Feb 2, 2018 | by AARON KLEIN / FR Posted by Jim Robinson

A four-page House Intelligence Committee memo alleging abuse of surveillance authority raises immediate questions about former FBI Director James Comey’s role in utilizing the infamous, largely discredited 35-page anti-Trump dossier to obtain a FISA court warrant to monitor an individual associated with Donald Trump’s 2016 presidential campaign.

One glaring possible inconsistency centers on Comey’s June 8, 2017 prepared remarks for the Senate Select Committee on Intelligence, where he referred to the anti-Trump dossier as containing “salacious and unverified” material. Yet, according to the memo crafted by House Republicans, Comey personally signed three FISA court applications utilizing that same dossier that he labeled “salacious and unverified” eight months later to obtain FISA court warrants to conduct surveillance on Carter Page, who briefly served as a volunteer foreign policy adviser to Trump’s 2016 campaign.

The memo documents that on October 21, 2016, the FBI and Justice Department sought and received the FISA order against Page, and that the agencies sought the renewal of the order every 90 days in accordance with court requirements. Renewals require separate finding of probable cause each time, the memo relates.

According to the memo, Comey “signed three FISA applications in question on behalf of the FBI, and Deputy Director Andrew McCabe signed one.” Sally Yates, then-Acting Deputy Attorney General Dana Boente, and Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein signed one or more of the applications on behalf of the Justice Department.(Excerpt) Read more at breitbart.com ...

=================================

Comey CLEARLY knew about Obama's wiretaps....and told candidate Trump.Trump was angry about it.
He was endlessly ridiculed, and was even expected to "apologize" to Obama for such a "fanciful tale."

FBI: Madam Secretary, we are here to talk to you off the record about your email habits.

HRC: Well at this point what difference does it make?

FBI: Thank you, Mrs.Clinton. Have a nice day...
